Eurovision 2022 was back on our screens with the grand final tonight.
While the UK was rooting for Sam Ryder, Ukraine were the favourites to win. But, other contenders gained themselves many fans with outrageous costumes and quirky lyrics.
Norway was a country that everyone was talking about as they had Subwoolfer representing them. The act performed while wearing yellow wolf masks that conceal their identity. The duo go by pseudonyms Keith and Jim and claim to have been formed ‘4.5 billion years ago on the Moon’ but their real identities are still a mystery.

The Norweigan pop duo only formed last year but have been elevated to Eurovision due to their astronomic rise to popularity after winning the Melodi Grand Prix 2022 – Norway’s competition to decide the country’s Eurovision entry.
While their costumes were certainly a talking point, it was their unusual lyrics which had everyone rooting for them. They performed a Red Riding Hood themed song titled “Give That Wolf a Banana”. The song spread like wildfire on social media after the act performed in the heats.
Norway's Eurovision entry: ‘Give That Wolf a Banana’ lyrics
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Not sure I told you, but I really like your teeth
That hairy coat of yours with nothing underneath
Not sure you have a name, so I will call you Keith
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
See where you’re going, but I don’t know where you’ve been
Is that saliva or blood drippin’ off your chin?
If you don’t like the name Keith I’ma call you Jim
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And before that wolf eats my grandma
Give that wolf a banana
Give that wolf
And before that wolf eats my grandma
Give that wolf a banana
Give that wolf
Give that wolf (banana)
Yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yumYum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Banana
I like the scent of every meal on your breath
That hunger in you, I’m in danger now, I guess
Let’s go to grandma’s, you say grandma tastes the best
Oh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
And before that wolf eats my grandma
Give that wolf a banana
Give that wolf
(I want your grandma, yum, yum)
And before that wolf eats my grandma
Give that wolf a banana
Give that wolf
Give that wolf
Someone give that wolf a banana
Yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Someone give that wolf a banana
Yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Someone give that wolf a banana
Ba-na-na
Ba-na-na-na-na
Ba-na-na
Ba-na-na-na-na
And before that wolf eats my grandma
Give that wolf a banana
Give that wolf
(I want your grandma, yum, yum)
Someone give that wolf a banana
And before that wolf eats my grandma
Give that wolf a banana
Give that wolf
Give that wo-o-olf
Yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Someone give that wolf a banana
Yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum
Yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum, yum-yum-yum

That hairy coat of yours with nothing underneath
Not sure you have a name, so I will call you Keith
